Where were you? Today I achieved one of my dreams But it was a hollow victory I soon found I was happy at first, of course thinking What would you think? I thought you’d be happy But you weren’t there Where were you? Now my lifes in motion and moving forward All the things we wanted together are on their way But I’ve no one to share them with So I mope, I’m depressed, I’m alone most of all But I can’t find you. Anymore. Where were you? I guess I keep the answer to that question inside One of the things I can’t admit because it hurts Of course I miss you. It’s not a question I can’t answer Because I knew where you were You were with him You left me alone for him. So now we’ll never see our dreams achieved We’ll never get married or own a house, Or have kids, 2 cars, none of it. My dreams are hollow now. I really can’t Keep them straight. Whats mine? What’s ours? Where were you? There is no you and me. You left me for him My achievements aren’t for us, but for me But if I could trade them for you I might do it. Because I love you. But you left me. Now I wonder… all the time that I was in love… Where were you?
